Nearer My God To Thee

Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee
Even though it be a cross that raiseth me
Still all my song shall be nearer my God to Thee

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

There let the way appear, steps unto heav'
All that Thou sendest to me, in mercy give
Angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly
Still all my song shall be nearer my God to Thee

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Though like the wanderer the sun gone down
Darkness be over me, while my rest a stone

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

Then with my waking thoughts
Bright with Thy praise
Out of my stony grief, Bethel I'll raise
So by my woes to be nearer
My God, to thee

Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
